Priscilla’s True Story & Her Real Life With Elvis Presley

With anticipation building for Sofia Coppola’s upcoming Priscilla, it’s worth revisiting the true story of Priscilla Presley’s life with and after Elvis. 2022 saw the release of Baz Luhrman’s Elvis, and though the film was met with approval by his estate, it received some public criticism for glossing over the controversial details of Elvis and Priscilla Presley’s relationship in favor of an examination of The King’s history with his manager, Colonel Tom Parker. Conversely, the estate has voiced their disapproval of Priscilla, a film that promises to focus on the marriage, as adapted from Priscilla’s own 1985 memoir, Elvis and Me.
